Louise Egedal

After more than twenty years in the studio, Danish ceramist Louise Egedal still finds every encounter with clay a learning experience. “It pushes back, collapses, does unexpected things,” she explains.

After more than twenty years in the studio, Danish ceramist Louise Egedal still finds every encounter with clay a learning experience. “It pushes back, collapses, does unexpected things,” she explains. “And all the while you need to accommodate, to stay flexible and be patient.”  Describing her process as “a physical and intuitive matter, rather than a matter of the mind,” she produces work that combines a mastery of Scandinavian traditions with a respect for rustic Japanese and Korean forms. “I consistently work on refining my craftsmanship – only to then forget it — to trust the process and then get out of the way. I find myself taking more and more joy in the journey itself.”
